Title: Cruisy Ride Marysville 8th September 2013 Post by: Phil Randall on August 14, 2013, 11,42:03 AM In keeping with my recent form, my "Cruisy" ride is on again Sunday 8th Sep.
This is a level 1-2 ride standard and beginners or inexperienced riders are encouraged. The weather is warming up a bit and I anticipate great riding conditions. 8.30 am for 9.00 am start, rec reg is ok, we will do about 100-150 kms, lunch in Marysville, probably. Directions, take the Marysville road from Narbathong for exactly 2 km and cross the Acheron River bridge. Turn hard left at the end of the safety rail down to the car park. Note, the carpark is a CFA turning loop and with the fire season approaching we need to keep it clear. All welcome, Phil R. 0408 370 764 Title: Re: Cruisy Ride Marysville 8th September 2013 Post by: Yarra_Valley on August 15, 2013, 11,46:29 AM Im in :D

I've been wanting to do this ride for a while. How much extra fuel would I need for a stock WR250F to cover a possible 150kms and what is the best way to carry it? Title: Re: Cruisy Ride Marysville 8th September 2013 Post by: Phil Randall on August 20, 2013, 11,37:32 PM Neil, There is petrol at Marysville, by credit card I think. However if we get close to 150 k most of us will be low and we will think of something.

Great ride on weekend. That big hill before lunch made me feel at home... just like NZ! That red clay is evil! Would have loved to continue after lunch but had to ride back to cars... turns out I broke my thumb and now have it in a splint for 4 weeks! Throttle control was a bit of a problem. Anyhow I'm really happy with new KTM 350 XCF. The front end is supreme when hitting whoops and its really responsive on the gas. Can power wheelie in 3rd without effort... Just need to raise the bars by two inches and get some knee grip stuff. Will definitely be on more rides soon... and the wife cant go on about the thumb as she encouraged me to get back on a bike!
